The biggest problem with Hillary Clinton, is that she was a Clinton. Traditionally democratic voters in rust belt places like Michigan and Ohio ect.. still remember the trade deals her husband made in the 90's and have not forgiven the clinton's for it, the dems wrongly assumed they had those votes locked. It's a fact now that a significant percentage of "trump democratic voters" in the rust belt would have voted Bernie over Trump on the ballot, if his name was there.
Hillary caved in to her donors and special interests groups by passing over Elizabeth warren, she let whatever resentment she might have had towards the Bernie camp blind her, to the fact she needed him on the ticket to stop trump from stealing the rust belt. Obama's pushing of the TPP and Hillary's previous support for the TPP before her sudden change In stance towards it, didn't help her credibility, being the wife of Bill Clinton was going to be a negative for her in those states.
Trump has shown his true colours by basically doing everything he attacked Hillary for with regards to appointing bank and Oil Execs, backpedaling on his campaign promises, the carrier deal was good PR for Trump in Indiana.
Obama had a positive campaign , He was new and relatively unknown , he didn't make the Crux of his campaign "vote for me I'm black" as his slogan.
